The trend towards increasing container cargo transshipment in the ports of Great Odesa continues.
This was stated by the head of the State Enterprise “Ukrainian Sea Ports Authority” Oleksandr Semirga in an interview with USM.
Thus, in 2024, Ukrainian ports processed almost 130 thousand TEU – twice as much as a year earlier. The trend continues: in just seven months of 2025, 114.5 thousand TEU have already been processed, that is, 88% of the total volume of last year.
The head of the USPA noted that container lines are actively increasing volumes and opening new routes.
“For example, recently we accepted the first calls of a new Turkish container line. Of course, the volumes depend on the security situation. There are cases when, after shelling, individual companies temporarily suspended work. But thanks to the resilience of port workers and companies, work continues, and volumes are increasing,” said Oleksandr Semirga.
